Meaning of “Love Wins” by Carrie Underwood

Some people face extraordinary challenges in life. For instance, a child can be murdered in a moment’s notice by a stray bullet. And while such a misfortune would devastate the mother, to most people it is nothing more than “just another story on the evening news”. However, if we are compassionate towards one another, we can help alleviate the suffering of our neighbor. Also if we make a unified, concerted effort, we can eradicate the negative living that society seems to be moving towards. And that is the message of the song “Love Wins”. Underwood is using this song to remind us of the triumphant power of human concern and compassion through love.

So in all, the lyrics preach peace, love and unity.

What Carrie Underwood said about this song

According to Underwood, despite the fact that there are so many negative things ongoing in our world, she and her collaborators decided not to use the song’s lyrics to paint the world black. Why? Because she believes the world is an amazing place. However, she feels people unfortunately find themselves “caught up in surface things” and are “quick to get angry at each other”. Underwood added that she believes the Creator made everybody on earth different for a reason. And if only we could keep our cool and have a hearty conversation with someone different from us, we could all learn from one another.

Underwood hopes the song will help people to understand and love one another despite their differences.
